NEW BOXING RULES you'd like to suggest

[keystone30pack]

i think there is in europe

have to wait for someone who knows to read this

[Easy-E]

Although its more about promotions then actual boxing, have a 6 ppv a year rule or something.

[Kayo]

more point deductions if a fighter refuses to press action i.e runs away barely throws punches n just clinches i know they already do this but they really dont enforce it enough

[deuce_drop]

show the judges scores as the fight is happening. i think that it has a chance of keeping the judges honest. show them up until the championship rounds, or half way or three quarters way in other fights.

4,6,8,10, show them up to a certain point. that way people can heckle a judge for some ****** ****.

that and if a fighter knows he's down literally on the cards it could motivate him and if a fighter is ahead on the cards it might make him slip a bit and let the other guy get back into the fight.

in reality it isnt going to change the fighters fight plan, they hide the score cards to build suspense.........thats why you keep it concealed in the last couple of rounds.......

i dunno, there are a bunch of holes that can be poked through this one, but it's a thought.

also dunno if anyone has mentioned it either, don't care if they did, i stand behind it.
anything to try and bring some kind of honesty back into the game, if there ever was any..........

I think that the judges have been fooling us all this years the way they score the fights. TOO MANY NUMBERS!

Why don't they just give the round to whoever wins it and "cero" to the loser, that way at the end, if it is a "ten" rounds fight they can call it, As an example: "6 to 4" or if it is a "twelve" rouns fight "7 to 5" SIMPLE!!!

Too Many Numbers!!!

I think that the judges have been fooling us for all this years. Even they get confused themselves making changes on the score cards at the last minute. Who do they want to please?

The way I see it would be better if they use just one number for each round. If the fight is a "ten" rounder they can read the results for example: "6 to 4" that means giving the round to the winner and cero to the loser. Tha same way if it is a twelve rounder fight: "7 to 5" as an example.

SIMPLE!!!

i actually agree with kurebe on that make it a total score not points and such. but one big thing is clinching. not alot of boxers do it but ruiz is just ****ing adusing that **** out of it. sorry my for my language but he just makes me so mad. they say if you clinch they will take a point has he ever had a point taken away?? i actually think in the gollata fight he did but that was it. you cant really stop it totally bc sometimes you just need to do it if you are hurt but it should go like this. first time you break it up. second time you get a warning third time you get a point off next time its a DQ. that goes for the whole fight not just one round. bc maybe either A ruiz fights might not put you asleep until the second round and B we will see what kind of fighters there really are out there.
another one is PPV. i dont agree if you want the sport to be widely known than atleast put some big fights on ESPN HBO and showtime not the PPV version. not alot of people can get PPV. yea not everyone has cable but you also know how much say a bar would make or something like that being able to show fights on their TV's. that would be so much more money in boxing.
also have one title per division. not this i took a crap on the tolit so i am a HW champ title. thats bull crap. one title than it will be more exciting bc you will actually have better fights bc the champ knows that if he loses the belt he cant go after another champ and beat up on him. he will have to go back after the guy who just beat him.
thats all i could think of right now.

no holding or grabbing for 3 seconds.

Something definitely needs to be done about the advertisement logos in ring center.
They should be eliminated. In addition to being potentially hazardous to the fighters, those things have screwed up the flow of a # of bouts.
